Unhatched egg

[Aprylb]

Not on the egg. Still chirping but no pip. I have major concerns about the clubbed foot baby. There is more wrong than just feet. This little guy cannot hold duck posture. His neck is crooked and instead of trying to move his legs he jerks his whole body when trying to walk. He prefers to be on his back and twist is neck in a circle to use his beak to drag himself around. I'm on the hunt for someone who knows what they are doing and can help this baby. I think he needs more than I can give. If anyone knows anybody let me know. It really breaks my heart to see this guy so bad off. I am starting a new thread to try and find someone.

I'm looking for anyone who has experience in disabled ducks and how to help him, who would be willing to take him in and give him the best life possible. I'm not convinced he can be helped.

Do you have where you are in your signature? Have you been on any face book duck forums? It will take a really dedicated person. Has the little one been able to drink and eat yet?

I haven't been on FB yet. He took 2 bites of food and does drink but he can't do either on his own due to not being able to keep his legs under him. He keeps them out behind him. I will upload some videos later this evening.

Egg is still chirping loudly. The dark has made its way up to the air shack. I think it's the duckling and some how it is against the shell. Not sure what happened to the membrane but I can see it moving.

Sounds like progress is being made hopefully you’ll see an external pip very soon.
